Interaction with Other Chemicals Which Enhance Toxicity: Mixing with ammonia, acids, detergents, or organic matter

will release chlorinated compounds, which are irritating to eyes, lungs, and mucus membranes. Chlorine dioxide

vapors are emitted when this product contacts acids, chlorine or bleach.

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: May aggravate preexisting conditions such as: Eye disorders that decrease

tear production or have reduced integrity. Skin disorders that compromise the integrity of the skin. Respiratory

conditions including asthma and other breathing disorders. Ingestion may induce G6PD deficiency, hemolysis and

renal failure. G6PD deficiency, hemoglobinopathies, renal compromise, and conditions causing hypoxia may be

aggravated by ingestion of this material.

Protection to First-Aiders: Protect yourself by avoiding contact with this material. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not

ingest. Do not breathe dust. Use personal protective equipment. Refer to Section 8 for specific personal protective

equipment recommendations. At minimum, treating personnel should utilize PPE sufficient for prevention of blood

borne pathogen transmission.

Notes to Physicians: Chlorine dioxide vapors are emitted when this product contacts acids or chlorine. If these vapors are

inhaled, monitor patient closely for delayed development of pulmonary edema which may occur up to 48-72 hours post inhalation. Following ingestion, neutralization and use of activated charcoal is not indicated. Probable mucosal

damage may contraindicate the use of gastric lavage. Treat as a corrosive due to the pH of this material. This is also a

strong oxidizer which will react with tissue in the presence of water. For prolonged exposures and significant

exposures, considered delayed injury to exposed tissues. There is no specific antidote. Treatment is supportive care.

Follow normal parameters for airway, breathing and circulation. Ingestion of even small amounts of solution should

be closely monitored for methemoglobinemia, hemolysis, and glutathione depletion, followed by renal failure. This

chemical acts similarly to its related compound chlorate, and produces a drug induced G6PD deficiency. Methylene

blue has not been reported as effective. Consult the PubMed Case Report PMID 22996135 for the case description

and treatment utilized.
